[Solved] Cannot Open ZoneAlarm Free > Download latest version.

Hi,
Recently, ZoneAlarm blocked one of the programs I was using. So, to solve the problem, I tried to go and un-block it manually in ZoneAlarm interface.
But, it acts in a pretty strange way... I cannot open the ZoneAlram window. The protection is on, but there's no way I can open it. ZoneAlarm is the only program who is deficient in that way on my computer, and this cannot be caused by a malware of any kind since I just made an A1 clean on my computer by an informatic technician.

Could it be caused by a deficient version of ZoneAlarm?

Hi;

Very old versions of Zone Alarm are no longer supportedthe Current Supported Zone Alarm is Version 11.0.000.038

Keep your Computer up to date with Latest Updates, Computers are Expensive pieces of equipment. For the same reasons that you lock your home and car (to keep others out), you need to have some type of latest version of a Firewall & Antivirus protection on your computer. There is an Arms race out there between Malware producers and Antivirus software producers.and the War Escalates Hourly.

Re: Cannot Open ZoneAlarm Free

Awesome!

The problem was simply that wasn't updating it the right way. (I was taking the easy way out.)

And, between, my version of ZoneAlarm wasn't old. Since I couldn't open the interface, I tried to find it in ''Downloaded files''.
Because I was just running it, not installing it, it wasn't in the file. I only found an older version in the list, and I thought it was the right one (huge mistake here).
